If the 98 members of Congress who served in the military, Democrat and Republican alike, would unite and stand on the steps of the Capitol and reiterate their pledge to obey the US Military Code of Conduct and denounce Trump's threats toward their 6 co-members, they could take back their power.

I believe it's possible Trump could "MAGA". How?
By pushing us to no longer accept apathy, indifference and inaction. By showing us why, we can no longer afford corporate interference in elections. By showing us the inherent weakness of letting the wealthy dominate the condition of the rest of us.

And not just for 1 day...
Time to drop and boycott unethical companies that don’t care about decent working conditions and wages, human rights, environmental protection. We have the wallet power and this is the only thing those greedy corporations understand.

Republicans know exactly what they are doing in these cases. Speculation that they might simply be waging an ideological battle — and that it could backfire politically — is either dangerous wishful thinking or uninformed. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Apparently, they had some extra time on their hands, notice they didn't vote on fascism though. Dems are seeking more ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in the midterms. That's why I'm going with dsausa.org

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Fuck all of them. Bernie (and AOC) need to flip to DSA
US Congress voted 285–98 to condemn "socialism." 88 Democrats joined Republicans, including Hakeem Jeffries.

What they mean by socialism is your access to healthcare, housing, safety regulations, and anything that benefits you instead of the oligarchy. There has been no vote to condemn fascism. #3E

These ridiculously oversized single occupancy pickup trucks should be heavily taxed due to their danger to society, degradation of the road surfaces, and destruction of our livable planet. They are unnecessary and rarely tow, haul, or go off-road. #Trucks #PickupTruck

Oregon National Guard General Alan Gronewold:

“Yes, if you give an order that directs a soldier to commit a criminal act, they should disobey that."

The only person who thinks the contrary is a 34-count convicted felon, who wouldn't pay himself for the crime committed by the soldier.

As a tool for activism or daily stress burnout, I would really like to recommend this free app, although it helps if you chip in of course. I use the timer every day in meditation. The app is called Medito.
